    Tacos
    Amanda M.

    Needed a quick hearty snack in-between a random brewery crawl and DANG these tacos/burrito blew me away. So yummy! That birra sauce was thick and salty. Sooo good, we smothered the burrito with that sauce. The salsas were also just delightful. Couple patio tables out front! Loved it!

    So, SO happy I stumbled upon the Taco Cacao Food Truck on a rainy Tuesday afternoon...after years of wanting to try the tiny location on busy Wornall Road I was able to walk up and treat myself to a taco Tuesday! The food truck had parked itself in the visible location down the street from Cellar Rat and directly across from the Mexican Consolate in the Crossroads district. I wad stuck in a soggy situation and the white and red taco truck was a beacon shining in the rain awaiting my hunger to approach it. I confidently chose the red pork taco and the chicken pastor and the total was a tad bit surprising at $7 so $3.50 per taco but, I was withholding judgement for the taste test and boy, was I glad I did. These tacos were stuffed with heaping helpings of fresh meat and topped with plenty of pickled onions and crema. They were well worth their price tag. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the "red pork" taco consisted of tender juicy shredded pork, not the usual chunks of red pork that I'm used to at other Mexican restaurants. This just might be one of my top tacos ever! It coated my hands with the best red residue imaginable, that was top tier meat juice right there, you got the believe that I made sure to sop up all of it! The chicken pastor, so chicken cooked in pineapple, was ground which I also wasn't expecting and the crema that was on top of thus taco was a flavor bomb. All in all I preferred the pork taco over the chicken taco but both were a delicious way to celebrate Taco Tuesday albeit a little water logged.

    Definitely don't recommend.. yes I did get ful size was pretty good but soooo bland and all you could taste was the salt in the rice couldn't even tell there was meat in it and gave me a cup of salsa not even half filled. I don't recommend

    Taco Cacao is one of my favorite places in Kansas City to get authentic tacos. Taco Cacao is popular & well-known to KC locals as one of the best places to get tacos for many reasons. I'd also personally recommend ordering the side of rice along with your tacos because it is absolutely delicious! You may have seen this food truck driving around Kansas City, but did you know that you could go in person to buy your tacos as well at an actual stand? Eat your tacos outside or take them with you and eat them wherever you'd like! We ended up taking our tacos to a local park and having a picnic! Make sure to stop at this taco stand or at one of the taco trucks driving around the greater Kansas City area today!

    I was impressed by the quality and the reasonable price at this food truck, although the sides were fairly small, and the service could have been better. My two tacos ($2.25 each) with sides of rice and black beans ($1.49 each) were ready just six minutes after I ordered at the counter, where the service was mixed - a 12 minute delay on the truck opening time, one employee helpful, and the other person quiet and glum. The street tacos were delicious, with good quantities of meat and other toppings on 4" double tortillas. I especially liked the chicken al pastor taco with its aioli sauce, but the barria taco was also moist and very flavorful. Unfortunately, the sides of rice and beans came in fairly small (3" wide x 2" high) containers. The rice was very moist and flavorful, while the beans were good. Overall, pretty good, but with limited parking at this semi-permanent location.

    5. Asada Taco

    Delicious Asada Tacos. Some of the best tortillas I've had at a taco place in Kansas City.

    This place is bumpin! Every time I drive by (which is all the time), there's a line with people wrapped down Wornall. I had to stop by and try it for myself. They do have online ordering available (which I'd recommend). Since they are street tacos, they are on the smaller side. I had 2 but would recommend 3 or trying a burrito. Everything tasted SO fresh! My favorite taco was the #1 chicken al pastor with pineapple pico and chipotle aioli. It is a small operation so be prepared to wait a while for your food (even if you preorder online), but I have faith they'll figure out the best way to account for the high volume of traffic they're generating. I'm so happy to have them within walking distance and can't wait to go back!

    I was able to sample Taco Cacao when they were parked at the Elmwood cemetery for the 150th anniversary celebration. My first time having lunch in a cemetery was a memorable one. The two $3 tacos I had were fantastic. Heaped with meat, both the asada and quesaberria were very flavorful and fresh hot off the grill.

    These were some of worst tacos I've had in recent memory. I ordered a birria, an asada, and a chicken al pastor. Pastor was edible, but the asada meat looked grey and low grade and wasn't seasoned well. Didn't even try the birria. also there big chunks of onion and cilantro that wasn't diced. Tacos El Tio for life!

    Family taco pack - 7 beef tacos, 7 chicken tacos, spicy salsa and salsa verde
    Amy W.

    I tried family pack of tacos. You can get two different kinds (7 each) and it was $42 after tax. I tried chicken and beef tacos and it comes on corn tortillas, with a side of spicy salsa and salsa verde. There are a few tables outside and it is a walk-up window. Service was friendly and it was maybe a 15 minute wait from order time to the food being ready. Very fresh and would highly recommend.

    Was soggy
    jamie r.

    This was the worst taco place I've even eaten at in my life...Birria tacos were flavorless...the Birria Quesadilla was soggy...the rice was hard and bland! I will never go back.

Water napkins and utensils are at the back counter. The room has tall ceilings, a floral mural on the wall and bathrooms in the hall way, 6 stalls.

I just took a swing at it, picked up a menu, and stood there. It took a while for somebody to acknowledge that I was there. The person who took my order was super involved, which is cool, but they needed some help, and the person who came by to help them seemed to be rather impatient, so that was one of the first things I noticed. They do bring your food out in a reasonable amount of time, delivered to your table. You have a number that attaches to a metal wand that they give to you. So the water station is set up in the back, you get your own water, but they were out of cups. They had a really cool aesthetic to it, with like the garage door where you can see all the downtown. The only problem was that the sun went down, and it started to get rather cold. Nobody ever closed the door, but I ordered the Asada fries. 3/5 heavy on the seasoning, but not so much on the flavor, it came across. It's kind of salty. I thought it would be different than what it was. The portion size was fine, and the green sauce that they offer you on the side really makes it better. Also ordered the CHORI queso dip lied on the chorizo for the portion size. The flavor was also a three out of five. The chip that they give you with it has a nice, good texture and reasonable seasoning. My wife had the mushroom Tinga tacos. She gave him four out of five. She really enjoyed them. The atmosphere is cool. The weights staff are really cool. I'd consider coming back on a Thursday. They have this cool thing that you can try new and upcoming dishes, and then they also have brunch, so I'm thinking about giving them a second shot. If you've never been, you should come and see what your opinion is, but really cool aesthetics and great views.

    When the weather's good, expect the garage doors to be open and inviting you inside. I've eaten at…read moreConchita Tacos (next to /upstairs from Kon Tiki) more times than I care to admit (okay, over 5 times.) I've tried nearly everything on the menu, minus the fries. Ordering is usually at a kiosk or with a member of the staff. It's fast casual, so set expectations that way in terms of service. Kansas City has good tacos (all over KCK especially.) I'd classify these taxos as slightly upscale, but totally worth the extra cost. The quality, care and love from the team shows. The corn tortillas are hand made with a gorgeous masa made from organic corn. You can smell and taste the difference. I usually get 3 tacos and split a side of totopos and salsa molcajete. I usually get the Al Pastor, Pescado (fried fish) and Camaron Poblano (Shrimp). The Salsas also have a wonderful luck of spiciness. Anytime I'm near the Crossroads or Downtown and want a quick bite that satisfies, you'll find me here. Just look for the "Tacos" sign with a lit up arrow!

This delicious spot is right next to or shares the same space as Kon tiki which makes it easy to order food while you are sitting at the bar.

Our food came out fairly quick and more importantly piping hot. Everyone was so friendly and educational about what we could order. Omg, please if you can.. try those fries!

You're right in the KC Live space of the P&L and there are drinks aplenty, so drop in! The food is about it what you'd think, but not 'off the chain' or anything. The house salsa has a firm punch about it, and when riding atop a housemade tortilla chip, it mixes quite well. I highly recommend the Spicy Margarita which is not for the faint of heart but not so spicy that you're calling the fire brigade. Great lime base, solid tequila, and sliced jalapeños make for a refreshing and enjoyable cocktail. The Carne Asada Tacos are a good choice, maybe a touch light on the carne, however, but tasty. Pricing is what it is for the location. A couple could get in & out with a cocktail and dinner for around $60, so that's reasonable. Service is friendly and they turn things quickly, the food comes fresh & ready, and it seems to be well-run. It gets loud in here, so be prepared, but that's just KC Live.
